Configuring SNTP Client and Server

Troubleshooting


Problem

This document provides information about SNTP client and server support at R530.

Resolving The Problem

The IBM eServer i5 can be both an SNTP client and an SNTP server.

To set up the SNTP client, specify a time server in the remote system field and *yes in the client autostart field on the Change NTP Attributes (CHGNTPA) screen. A list of public time servers is maintained on the Internet. You can use a search engine with a query of NTP servers. The SNTP client will change the hardware clock.

Specify *yes in the Server autostart field to enable the eServer i5 as a time server.
